 Momma made it out of jail
 But the war was at it's peak
 Dead bodies laying on the streets
 Can't trust a soul and you can't trust police
 All the churches empty
 'Cuz they shot the priests
 Momma found my brother but she can't find me
 Alone in my daddy house, nothing there to eat
 She brought me bread
 But was scared, to take me with her
 'Cuz I know my dad would probably kill her
 She told her sister, 'baby please go get em'...
 A week later flew out to Belgium
